Planning Commission April 27, 2021 Page 4 on noise, keep a clear division, and prevent any interaction between the businesses trying to operate and students. Commissioner Johnson stated he agrees with Commissioner Thiel's comments, noting construction debris will be gone but the privacy fence would be a better buffer. It will take several years for the trees too come in and provide good buffer screening. He is open to a 6' or 8' foot fence stating 6' is probably fine. Commissioner Rydberg stated he feels pine trees provide a better sound buffer. Commissioner Feinstein supports an 8' fence and feels it would allow for more visual coverage. Commissioner Jordan stated a fence is not a solution for stopping sound at all. He feels staggering trees becomes a visual buffer. He noted the businesses did not move into the area knowing there was a school adjacent to them. Commissioner Johnson is empathetic towards the businesses and felt a fence is easier to monitor the children and takes up less space and would accommodate the businesses the best. Commissioner Thiel wondered if there could there be a combination fence and some trees to buffer the businesses. He stated otherwise he supports a fence. Commissioner Johnson stated trees would be more aesthetically pleasing but perhaps the circumstances require a fence.
